What an incredible first class! 👨🏽‍🍳❤️
Thank you to everyone who joined Chef Juan for our very first cooking class. It was an evening filled with great food, new skills, lots of laughs, and an amazing group of people.

This week we learned how to make our crispy Chicken Milanesa with a fresh chopped salad; restaurant quality, made right at home.
We can’t wait to cook with everyone again next Tuesday!
